Regulation of the lignocellulolytic response in filamentous fungi (2016, background): “Pectin is a far more heterogeneous component of lignocellulosic biomass than either cellulose or hemicellulose, and this may account for the lack of a single transcription factor regulating pectin utilization (Mohnen, 2008).”
Remediation of Heavy Metals by Biomolecules: A Review (2015, background): “They can be found mainly in plant cell walls where they play a role in the plant physiology, growth and development (Mohnen, 2008).”
The distribution of ester-linked ferulic acid in the cell walls of angiosperms (2010, background): “The pectic polysaccharides are very complex and are composed of different domains (Mohnen 2008).”
Heterogeneity in the chemistry, structure and function of plant cell walls. (2010, background): “Indeed, one might reasonably ask whether the evolution of the extreme complexity in pectic polysaccharides might have been driven by the potential of these polysaccharides to release an array of different signaling oligosaccharide”
Recent updates on lignocellulosic biomass derived ethanol - A review (2016, background): “Other components such as pectin, hemicellulose, cellulose characteristics, and other biomass features are also believed to contribute to the plant’s recalcitrance (Mohnen, 2008; Kumar et al., 2009b; Foston et al., 2011; Urbanowicz et al., 2012, Kumar and Wyman, 2013).”
Cell wall remodeling under abiotic stress (2015, background): “In order to fulfill this function, the cellulose fibrils need to be cross-linked by hemicelluloses (Cosgrove, 1997; Wolf et al., 2012) and possibly also by pectins (Mohnen, 2008; Peaucelle et al., 2012).”
Reconsidering conventional and innovative methods for pectin extraction from fruit and vegetable waste: Targeting rhamnogalacturonan I (2019, background): “HG, accounting for approximately 65% of pectin, is a linear polymer of α-1,4 linked galacturonic acid that is partially methyl-esterified at C-6 and O-acetylated in positions 2 and 3 (Mohnen, 2008).”
Plant cell walls: the skeleton of the plant world (2010, background): “Chemical evidence suggests that these pectic polysaccharides are covalently linked to one another, and to other wall polysaccharides (Mohnen 2008) although the physical arrangement of these different molecules within the wall is unknown.”
